PHARMACOLOGICAL PARTICULARS
_Pharmacodynamic Properties _
Ibuprofen is an analgesic which acts peripherally, inhibiting
prostaglandin synthesis
and the action of chemical mediators of pain. Codeine is a narcotic
analgesic acting
on central opiate receptors, although its pharmacological effects are
thought to be
due largely to its biotransformation to morphine.
The combination of a well tolerated peripheral analgesic with a
centrally acting
analgesic provides optimum pain relief with a lower potential for
producing side-
effects.
_Pharmacokinetic Properties _
The elimination half-life of both ibuprofen and codeine is
approximately three hours,
and both drugs are given three to fours times daily. The combination
of the two
drugs is therefore appropriate from a pharmacokinetic viewpoint; the
tablet exhibits
normal release characteristics for both active substances.
INDICATIONS
For the relief of pain in such conditions as: rheumatic and muscular
pain, backache,
neuralgia, migraine, headache, dental pain, dysmenorrhoea,
feverishness, symptoms
